A 57,000 Vote Powerhouse Of
Political Strength
Sixteen days remain before the municipal election which
will be held on August 20.
There are approximately 57,000 Negroes registered to vote
in this election — one-third of Memphis' registered, voters. This
political, powerhouse holds the balance of power in virtually
all of the races. Negroes can literally put into office who they
went and keep out who they don't want.
But the power that the Negro vote can wield in the election 
has not been respected by the majority of the white candidates. 
They don't seem to realize that Negroes hold the balance 
of power and can virtually control the results that will be
tabulated on the night of August 20. Judging from the planks
in their platforms — that old "separate but equal" bunk started 
by the Plessy vs. Ferguson decision — they don't have too
much respect for Negroes, either.
That is why every registered Negro in this city should get
it on his mind now to VOTE ON AUG. 20 and sweep the Negro
candidates info office and vote against these racist whites, be
they Jews or Italians. Since they have told the-Negroes, of this
city that they don't need their vole, they should not get it. We
should not give our 57,000 votes to people who say they do
not need them.
The so-called "thinking Negroes" of this city, the modernday 
"Uncle Toms," would have, us vote against the Negro candidates 
and liberal whiles because they feel race relations will
be hurt. This is ridiculous. The only communication we have
had in this city between the white citizens and the Negro citizens
is the white-Uncle Tom relationship, that of white supremists
paying Negro "Quislings" a few dollars to keep fellow "Negroes
in their place." An attempt was made last year to better relationships 
in this city when an interracial committee was formed, 
but this committee, thanks to while supremists, is now defunct, 
and the white members have formed the so-called "Dedicated 
Citizens Committee" to do a hatchet job on the Negro
candidates in this election.
The Negro citizens of this community have a great opportunity 
to change the atmosphere — political, social and economic 
— here by going to the polls on Aug. 20 in the greatest
number of this city's history and voting for the candidates who
are not ashamed of Negroes or the Negro vote. In doing so,
the Negro here will finally earn his respect — respect for a Harvard 
man because he deserves respect, and respect from a
laundryman because he has shown respect.
Let our 57,000 vote powerhouse of political strength move
itself to victory on Aug. 20.

August
August, Comes the season of the beginning of the harvest 
feast; the summer wanes far and the world is turning toward 
the sunset of the year. The lazy tides come in to cool the
scorching beach and the withered corntops shrug their shoulders
as if to say — the "strife is over."
August does not contain such a date in history as important
as July 4th, Independence Day, November 11th, Armistice Day,
December 25, Xmas Day, nor is that month credited along with
those disputed dates of the actual Emancipation of the slaves
in the United States. Still, it is that month of tender and precious
memories among the common herd; those people Abraham Lincoln 
is credited with saying that God must have loved because
He made so many of them.
Yea, August is the home-coming month. The family circles
are renewed with those afar coming home to be with loved
ones once more upon the land of the living, it is the month of
camp-meetings, and the common occasion of dinner on the
grounds during the long sultry Sunday afternoon. It is the
month of old time revivals, better known throughout the rurals
as "protracted meeting" time when the hallelujah crowds gathered 
about the bush arbors and old country churches at sunset
to "praise God from whom all blessings flow."
August is the month of ripening corn; the first yield of the
corn harvest is token to the mill for grinding into meal and the
old fashioned "fodder pullin" gets under way.
So after all, if August doesn't furnish a date for the wild
celebration of a national feast, those occasions upon which prognosticators 
are able to appraise the damages and the casualties 
likely in the celebration of a national holiday, it does bespeak 
the happy days of harvest, the ending of summer and
the first prophesy of the golden fall.
August, we hail thee.

"Happy Hawaii Here You Come"
Yes, Hawaii becomes the fiftieth star in the old Star Spangled 
Banner, which proudly waves over the islands in the seas.
Hawaii is a melting pot state; its varied nationalities, the Chinese, 
the Japanese, and other colored peoples, should make it
an interesting state in this union. This potpourri of nationalities,
principally of colored notions should afford a beautiful picture
of loyalty and devotion. It should also be a criterion in tolerance,
having been made up of people who had known the squeeze
end pinch of minorities.
It is encouraging to note that Hawaii springs up quite to
the contrary of her young sister Alaska from a political point
of view. Hawaii elected a Republican governor, and one Republican 
United States Senator, and one Democratic U. 5. Senator. 

Surely the Republicans will find great joy in that they have
an addition to their list of governors and senators.
The fact that Hawaii is a potpourri state, there may sooner
than was thought, come up a brown senator.
Congratulations are in order for both the newest state and
the nation at large.
So, "Happy Hawaii — here you come." We are glad to
have you in the Union.

Looking From The Civil Rights Horizon
It is being felt by now that the President made a wholesome 
contribution; when he failed to ask for injunctive powers
in certain Civil Rights areas. He left unwritten regulations for
the time being for the implementing of some of the principles 
he has advocated in this Civil Rights question.
He fully realized that there is room for much educational
maneuver where patience must be exercised in the promulgation 
of an effective Civil Rights program.
There are those of his partisan critics who would see a
federal state, a bully inquisition, or, the overlapping of the
land with so many bureaus and unwieldly investigators, that
the heart and purpose of the Civil Rights might be hampered.
What the President, did do, was, to ask for equal political
rights and equal opportunity for emplyoment having government 
contracts. These two rights, the right to vote and the
right to offer equality labor for those in the industrial arena,
would be fairly the beginning of a more comprehensive enjoyment 
of vested rights.
Without ones political rights and the right to work anywhere, 
other rights would be practically useless.
To weight the country down with excess bureaus, hordes
of "enforcement" officers, amounting in the end to heavy expense 
and a veritable police state.
President Eisenhower seems to rate the questions of voting 
arid jobs as the two main immediate objectives. And we
agree with him.

Manley Wins In
Jamaica Voting
Norman Manley whose People's 
National party, was returned
to power with a comfortable 11seat 
majority in the election Tuesday, 
now has the task of forming
the first Government under the
new internal self - government
constitution of Jamaica.
Of the 45 seats in the House of
Representatives, the People's National 
party won 28, the Jamaica
tabor party 16, and one seat went
to an independent. Nine former
members lost their seats.
In the old 32-member Council,
Strength was People's National
party, 18; Jamaica Labor party, 13,
and independent, 1.

Keating Seeks

bombings of religious and educational 
buildings and to ban hate
mail which, he said, "has served
to incite passions and violence in
communities which should be
peaceably working out plans to
comply with the Supreme Court's
desegregation decision."
Meanwhile, The House Judiciary
Committee Saturday neared completion 
- of its consideration of a
civil rights bill approved by an
all-northern subcommittee.
When the committee quit work
at noon Thursday, virutally only
one title of the bill remained for
consideration.
Chairman Emanuel Celler said
he expected the committee to complete 
the bill when it meets again
Tuesday.
When the committee quit Thursday, 
it had:
1. Killed President Eisenhower's
recommendation that the Congress
establish by legislation a Commission 
on Equal Job Opportunities
under Government Contracts.
2. Broadened the Administration's
proposal to make flight across
sta'e lines to avoid prosecution for
bombings of educational or religious 
structures so as to make it
apply to any type of illegal bombing 
of a structure.
3. Virtually completed approval
of Title VII of the bill relating to
the education of children of members 
of the armed forces.
The amendment to Title II of
the bill, relating to flight to avoid
prosecution for bombings of educational 
or religious structures was
offered by Representative J. Carlton 
loser, Democrat, of Nashville,
Tenn., where a Jewish Community 
Center and the home of Lee
Steegal, employee of Fisk University, 
were bombed in 1958.
Mr. Loser said his amendment,
which the committee adopted, extended 
the Administration proposal 
to cover any building structure,
place, vehicle, or real or personal
property.
"It is all comprehensive, he
said. Its net effect, he added, is to
bring into play the services of the
FBI in any type of bombing. "It
will be very effective in obtaining
the services of the FBI," he emphasized. 

Title VII, which the committee
had virtually accepted without any
major change, would enable the
Federal Government to provide
education for all children of military 
personnel, whether or not they
live on Federal property, when
public schools are closed to avoid
desegregation under Federal court
orders.
Six states have laws to close public 
schools which are ordered by a
Federal court to admit one or
more colored children. These states
are Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi, and South
Carolina.
If all the public schools in
these states were closed by state
or local authorities, the Defense
Department estimated that about
70,000 school-age children of active-duty 
military personnel might
be affected.
Potentially, Title VII is regarded 
as insurance of these 70,000
children who reside on Federal
against the denial of educational
opportunity in such circumstances.
It would authorize the United
States Commissioner of Education
to take possession of any school
building constructed with the aid
of. Federal funds after, enactment
of the proposal, when the local
school board which owns the
building is no longer using it for
free public education and the
commissioner needs the building
to provide schooling to children
of military personnel or to other
children whose reside on Federal
property.
While the school remains in
Federal possession, the Commissioner 
would pay the local district
a rental fee proportionate to its
share in the cost of constructing
the building.

Negroes Denied

house that all of the members of
the election commission were not
available. A clerk said that the
sheriff would return, but after the
attorney and a group of the Negro
registered voters wailed for a long
time in the corridors, the sheriff
failed to show up.
However, a number of deputysheriffs 
patroned the court house
looking at the Negroes threatening
ly. 

A reporter from this newspaper
witnessed the denial.
The group of Negroes indicated
that they would seek to take legal
action.

NOT BY GUNS ALONE
By E.M. Barker

SLADE CONSIDINE spoke automatically, 
scarcely knowing 
what he was saying in his
anger. "You are too nice a girl,
Beulah, to be given the run
around like that. Somebody
ought to knock Wynn's block
off!"
The girl looked it him for a
long moment without speaking,
then came around the desk and
put her hand on his arm. "Slade,"
she said softly, "just how did you
mean that?"
The cowboy was startled at
the changed timbre of her voice.
He looked down at her, and was
embarrassed at what Beulah Denhart 
was letting him see in her
eyes. Beulah was more than an
ordinarily pretty girl. She would
make any man a wife he could
be proud of With her it should
be easy to forget another girl—
a girl with cool, contemptuous
dark eyes, but whose lips held
the promise of infinite sweetness
for the right man.
Slade put his hands on Beulah's
arms, bent his head and kissed
her. "You're a swell girl, Beulah,"
he said a little huskily. "One of
the prettiest, nicest girls I've ever
known!"
It had been a gentle kiss. The
kind of a kiss a brother gives a
much loved younger sister, and
Beulah Denhart knew it, but her
hands went up to the cowboy's
shoulderst and for an instant her
eyes speculated with the possibility 
of making something more
of it.
A Sound above them yanked
Slade Considine out of an embarrassing 
situation, and landed
him into a worse one. Martha
Kilgore was coming down the
stairs, the little smile on her lips
telling them that she had been
a witness to the whole scene, or
thought she had.
She nodded coolly to Slade, then
turned to Beulah. "My grandmother 
wanted me to see if you
had any ice water. She is very
tired."
Then as Beulah turned toward
the kitchen, Martha smiled and
shook her head. "Don't go, please.
I don't want to interrupt you.
Just tell me where it is and I'll
get it."
Beulah hesitated, then said
briefly: "There's a pitcher in the
icebox. The kitchen's straight
behind the dining room—the door
on the right."
"Thank you."
When the other girl had gone
Beulah looked at the cowboy, a
wise, rueful smile on her lips.
"You too!" she murmured, "And
I sure ripped the wagon sheet for
you that time!"
Slade flushed. "Did it show as

plain as that?" he asked.
The girl shook her head. "Not
to her." She looked anxious.
"Slade, you don't think I staged
that little scene on purpose, do
you? I meant to tell you they
were up there — honest I did.
They are waiting to see Captain
Catlin, too, and I just plumb forgot 
to mention it."
"Of course I know you didn't
do it on purpose."
The girl's eyes darkened.
"Well— don't sound so darned
sure of it!" she snapped. "Maybe
I would have if I had thought of
it—or if I had known how you
felt. I am tired of being good old
honest, square-shooting Beulah!
The kind of a girl men slap on
the shoulder!" She flounced over
to the long mirror that hung
along one wall. She preened in
front of it, arched her neck and
eyed herself as critically as if
she were judging another woman's 
jelly at a county fair, while
Slade watched her uncomfortably. 

"The trouble with me," she said
through her teeth, half to herself, 
"is that I'm too much like
my name. Pretty enough maybe,
but solid and dependable, too. The
kind of girl that would make
some man a good wife, but that
couldn't keep him from turning
and whistling every lime a girl
like Martha Kilgore passed."
Suddenly she took a long
breath, made an obvious effort
to get hold of herself, and when
she turned and came back across
the room she was the girl Slade
had known for years—the girl
with the wise, mocking, halfcynical 
smile always on her lips.
"Sorry I treated you to a scene,
Slade. Forget it, will you? And
don't feel sorry for me. I've lived
With lonesomeness so long I'd
feel aorta lonesome without it."
Suddenly she cocked her head
back toward the kitchen door,
and her smile deepened. "That
girl's taking a long time to get
a pitcher of water. I bet she is
waiting for you to leave. Take
my word for it, cowboy, that's a
good sign. If you've already made
that much impression—and if you
will take my advice—you'll just
let her worry a bit. Here's Captain 
Catlin now. You want to go
right on up with him or shall I
tell Mrs. Kilgore he's here first?"
Memory of the past day's happenings 
came rushing back to
Slade. "I'll see him first," he said
grimly, "while I'm still out of
jail!"
Captain Catlin came in briskly.
"Good evening, Miss Denhart.
Hello, Slade."
The girl handed him a key.
"No. 12 this time, Captain. It's
all ready for you."
"Thank you. Slade, if we go
up there to talk, we're not so
liable to be interrupted."
As the two men went up the
stairs Martha Kilgore came out
of the kitchen. She looked accusingly 
at the other girl. "My
grandmother told you she wanted
to see Captain Catlin as soon as
ho came in!"
Beulah Denhart smiled back at
her blandly. "Slade's business is
official. I figured it was probably
more important."
Martha smiled. "That depends
on whose team you are playing
on," she said.
Beulah Denhart eyed her levelly 
for a moment, then took a
deep breath. She bad said she
was tired of being honest, depend,
able old Beulah, but she wasn't
She had a core of decency that
demanded a fair deal for those
she liked, even at the risk of being 
thought a meddler.
"Slade Considine is a grand,
guy," she said offhandedly. "He
is a better friend than enemy."
Martha Kilgore's back stiffened,
and her cheeks took on a suddenly 
higher color. "I could see
you thought that," she said.
Beulah grinned ruefully, "No,
that was just a consolation kiss—
because he felt sorry for me. You
see—I was engaged to another
man—to Wynn Thomason. Wynn
saw another girl he liked better
and asked for His ring back."
Martha came over to the desk.
She set the pitcher of water down,
then looked up and met the redhaired 
girl's level eyes. "I'm very
sorry. Are you telling me this because—–" 

Beulah shook her head. "No.
Not that I don't want him back.
I wouldn't want to try to hold
any man who didn't really love
me. And I think I never really
cared enough either. I'm telling
you because some day you are
going to start adding up, and I
want you to be sure you have the
right figures to start with."
Martha Kilgore took a long
breath. "Perhaps—I see what you
mean," she said softly. "I think
we ought to get better acquainted,
Beulah. Why don't you come out
to the ranch sometime and see
me?" She put out her hand.
Beulah hesitated, then took it
"I'll do that some day," she
smiled: "But just because we are
friends, don't get the idea I'm
not still a competitor—as long as
I've got a chance! And I don't
mean with Wynn!"
Slade wondered just how
much real toughness was behind 
Tony's surly tongue. Now
was his chance to nod out....
the story continues tomorrow.

you because some day you are
going to start adding up, and I
want you to be sure you have the
right figures to start with."
Martha Kilgore took a long
breath. "Perhaps—I see what you
mean," she said softly. "I think
we ought to get better acquainted,
Beulah. Why don't you come out
to the ranch sometime and see
me?" She put out her hand.
Beulah hesitated, then took it
"I'll do that some day," she
smiled: "But just because we are
friends, don't get the idea I'm
not still a competitor—as long as
I've got a chance! And I don't
mean with Wynn!"
Slade wondered just how
much real toughness was behind 
Tony's surly tongue. Now
was his chance to nod out....

Washburn Explains

went ahead and gave his speech.
Then Rev. Bunton spoke, and last
on the list was Mr. Stanback."
"All of the speakers made wonderful 
speeches," prof. Washburn
said, "but I felt something "fishy"
was going on when three of the
Negro candidates did not show up.
I don't know why they were not
there, but I certainly did not tell
them that the meeting had been
cancelled, and I know of no one
in my organization who did anything 
like that."
Washburn called a report that he
squabbled with W. W. Walker, another 
civic leader who attended the
meeting, "one of the most vicious
falsehoods that could have been
conceived." He said Walker "began
to ask Commissioner Loeb a lot of
foolish questions, and I interrupted
only to maintain the peace and the
rules of parliamentary procedure."
Washburn said it has always been
his belief that Walker "is a member 
and leader of this group of
rabble rousers in Memphis who are
always trying to stir up trouble and
cause confusion. But I was not going 
to have him mess up the meeting, 
with a lot of continuous heckling 
and arguing and attempting to
have questions answered as he
wanted them answered."
Washburn added, "There was no
segregation involved in the rally,
and I myself have been called an
integrationist, and I am working
toward equal rights for Negro citizens. 
Eat I don't believe that Walker 
and his rabble rousers are doing
Negroes any good with their extreme 
methods.
"As long as we have, these rabble
rousers around stirring up unnecessary 
confusion and trouble," Prof.
Washburn said, "we will never be
successful in our fight to be first
class citizens. And I regret very
much that these people have misrepresented 
the facts, and have
chosen to spread falsehoods. I see
no good that will come of it."

Dr. Banda Safe

an attempt to free them.
The disturbances so startled the
British government in London that
it sent out a special commission
to investigate. That group, called
the Devlin commission, recently
issued a report absolving Dr. Banda 
of complicity in the riots and
severely criticized the Nyasaland
government for using informers
who were to say what officials
wanted them to say.
On the basis of the report, Dr.
Banda is expected to be released
from prison shortly.

Dr. King Urges

groes were elected to the city's
Board of Education. "We also had
three squares and a coal-oil inspector 
elected right here in Memphis."
The first Negro candidate to
speak was Rev. Roy Love, seeking
a position on the school board. Here
I am running this tune because I've
enough guts to run — noboby asked
me.
As each of the four Negro candidates 
spoke 22 young people paraded 
through the temple carrying
election banners with their pictures
and slogans.
Rev. Henry C. Bunton, also a candidate 
for the Board of Education,
said "we are in a crusade which
means more than just trying to win
out over somebody. We don't have
to slip around behind closed doors
to say what we believe (he had reference 
to white candidates who are
afraid to face the racial issue.)
He also slapped at E. L. Washburn, 
of Lincoln Elementary School
Rev. Bunton, said "we don't want
any more cold biscuits handed out
of the back door. The respectable
white people don't appreciate your
turning against your own people."
Atty. Russell B. Sugarmon said
"three months ago, if somebody
would have said that I would have
been standing here and you there
listening to me, I would not have
believed it."
He continued "we are bringing a
brand new day to Memphis. You've
heard, that democracy can't work
in this Dixie town, but we are here
to put any end to that lie. Mr.
Crump is dead, machine rule is
dead and we are going to bury
segregation on Aug. 20. Rev. Ben
L. Hooks is going to preach the
funeral — but there will not be
much mourning."
Atty. Ben L. Hooks, also a Baptist
minister, said "on Aug. 20 there
will be a new chapter written in
Memphis. All of the white candidates 
are telling you that we don't
want integration. They are not telling 
the truth. The white man is a
great success in every field but human 
relations — there he is a
miserable failure."
He continued "There are still a
lot of uncle toms around. Preachers
who cannot stand up for his people 
are not fit to represent his

people."
W. W. Walker, coordinator for
the Volunteer Ticket said "any Negro 
who votes for Henry Loeb
should be buried with the other,
uncle toms, whose funerals we are
holding here tonight."
Ray Churchill, the only white
candidate to speak at the meeting
said, "for 10 years I've fought for
the things you are now fighting for.
It I am elected you will never have
to worry about receiving justice in
my court."
Eliehue Stanback, candidate for
City Tax Assessor, said "if elected,
I'm going to assess tax according
to the privileges Negroes receive in
public institutions."
Rev. S. A. Owen, pastor or Metropolitan 
Baptist Church, who introduced 
Dr. King, said "never before 
in the history of Memphis have
we had such arisement among the
citizenry ... and something is
bound to take place on Aug. 20."
Rev. W. Herbert Brewster and
Atty. A. W. Willis. Jr., were masters 
of ceremony. Rev. A. E. Campbell

Khrushchev Would

help to improving U. S.-Soviet relations. 

The Premier depressed big feelings 
during a leisurely inspection
of a U.S. Boeing 707 jet plane
which brought Nixon to Russia.
Khrushchev, munching peanuts,
sipping whisky and wisecracking
freely, used the occasion at Vnukovo 
Airport to got in a few digs
about American policies and planes.
After he made a thorough tour
of the military version of the Boeing 
707, Khrushchev was asked if
he would like to fly non-stop to
America on the plane.
"This one or some other one," re
plied 
the Premier, who has made
no secret of his desire lo visit the
United States. "That is not a question 
of principle—that is, the type
of plane to be used."
"When?" a reporter asked.
"When the "time is ripe, in good
time," Khrushchev answered.
The Premier's son, Sergei, 24, an
electrical engineer, accompanied his
father. He said he also would like
to visit the United States.
"It would be very interesting,"
Sergei said.
Sitting casually to the center
compartment of the plane, the Premier 
raised a glass of whisky and
proposed a toast:
I would like to suggest a toast
to the government of the United
States, the President, the Vice
President and to his representative
here, the Ambassador."
U. S. Ambassador Llewellyn
Thompson replied with another
toast:
"This is a conversion of a military 
plane to civilian use. I'd like
to propose a toast to the time when
we can convert all military planes
to civilian use."
"Very, good," Khrushchev said.
When sipping his drink for the
toast, the Premier quipped "the
Americans spoil a good product—
there is more ice than whisky, here."

that the meeting had been cancelled. 

However. Rev. Henry C. Bunton,
candidate for Board of Education.
and Eliehue Stanback, candidate
for City Tax Assessor, said they
filled to receive information that
the meeting had been cancelled, so
they appeared.
Rev. Bunton said he and stanback 
were seated on the lawn when
Principal Washburn emerged from
his home followed by Loeb, Mrs.
Lawrence Coe, candidate for Board
of Education; and Bay Churchill,
candidate for a city judgeship.
Rev. Bunton said he resented the
fact that Washburn denied the
other Negro candidates—Arty. Russell 
B. Sugarmon, candidate for
Public works Commission: Atty.
Ben L. Hooks, candidate for juvenile 
court, and Rev. Roy Lowe, candidate 
for Board of Education—
an opportunity to speak at the
meeting which he claimed he had
canelled.
Walker said Washburn praised
Loeb as a "man of decision" while
introducing him. However, it was
Walker's questions to Loeb which
caused tempers to burst into flame.
Walker said he asked Loeb,
"What has happened between you
and Negroes here since you were
elected commissioner nearly four
years ago? Negroes voted for you
before, tout you will not get any
Negro votes this time because you
have advocated racial hate."
Walker said Washburn attempted
to stop the questioning by saving,
"The thinking Negro in Memphis,
which I represent, wants to keep
good race relations."
Walker said he retorted: "Washburn, 
you do not represent the
thinking Negro in Memphis. The
type you represent is not needed
any longer, because you are out of
step with time. And I proved that
I wanted to have good race relations 
when I fought for this relatry 
on the battlefield in Europe
during World War II."
Directing his remarks again to
Loeb, Walker said: "At first you
said you didn't want votes from a
minority group. But now the campaign 
isn't as promising to you as
it appeared previously, so you
come seeking Negro votes. I can't
stomach voting for you. What kind
of a, man are you? You are a member 
of a minority group yourself."
Loeb denied that he said he did
not want votes from Negroes. He
added: "However, all of the white
candidates are for racial segregation." 

Walker said when he asked Loeb
about his statements concerning
acquiring land near the Penal Farm
and in Ensley. Bottoms to build
housing for Negroes, Loeb reportedly 
said he didn't see anything
wrong with it.
George W. Lee, chairman of the
steering committee for the Volunteer 
Ticket, said at the Thursday
meeting where Washburn was censured. 
"Let us concentrate on platforms'. 
Let us counterattack any
statement made about the Negro
candidates. Let us hit the issues
hard."
Lee continued, "We've got to
clear up this campaign point. Rev.
Bunton and Rev. Love did not
choose to oppose Mrs. Lawrence
Coe and Mrs. Arthur N. Seesell, but
they haven't said one word about
school integration."
He also revealed that "Negro
public school teachers are receiving
letters in an attempt to apply pres
sure 
against voting for Negro candidates." 

Lee went on vehemently: "If Negroes 
haven't grown into manhood,
then they don't deserve to even be
slaves. We must stop insults by
showing that we are tired of them.
We must stop these Negroes who
will sell the whole race, for a bland
smile and a pat on the back ...
"Don't toe afraid of losing your
job because your white employer
needs your labor as much as you
need your wages."
Rev. B. w. Norsworthy, pastor of
Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, said,
"Loeb received only 17,000 votes
from white voters when he was
running for Commissioner of Public 
Works. The majority of registered
Negroes voted for him. However, he
has taken every opportunity to kick
the Negro since he has been in
office."
He continued. "And a man like
Washburn should be exposed for
what he is," added Rev. Norsworthy.
